If you want me to scan in the photo's that were in the Sunday Mail article last month i'll do so when i get home as i still have it somewhere. All of which showing him as a 12 year old bhoy at Parkhead getting his photo taken with his idols wearing a Celtic strip.

I perfectly understood what you wrote, but it's no secret when it's all about the money a footballer suddenly changes his mind. How I said, he wanted to move to ibrox, and if you ask me, a true die hard celt would never want to do that. all of a sudden he stopped supporting the celts and wanted to join their rivals?

Fair enough if he wanted to join the rangers because of the money, I just can't stand his "I have always been a true die hard celt Show" at the moment. How I said, I dislike people changing their minds every 3 mins or liars.

That's how I see it based on the bbc websites and I don't see a single reason why they shouldn't write the truth.

I respect him as a player, but his "true celtic bhoy" show is just pathetic.

BBC is a reasonable source and only because some users say "oh no, I know for a fact", that ain't enough to change my attitude.

(just check out the rumours threads where everybody knew for a fact that we would get players x,y,z.... unfortunately we got neither of em.)

Ye, my mums sister's, boyfriend's granmothers nephew told me the same...

Who gives a fuk, as long as he keeps putting in in the net

mate that was superbly put, seemingly he was close to tears when his move to Rangers fell through and dont forget he was in fine celebratory form after his double for well that day. as a hun keeps telling me in work he could score 50 goals this season including winners against them and it would still never cause them as much pain as he caused us that day! cant take to him bhoys i'm sorry

I forgive him for what happened maybe a hat trick against the huns would help more
if you havent forgiven him what would it take for you to do so?

? what did he do,>Youngstar your name is good that is all he was .hail hail

Eamon67 · 05-10-2007, 11:05 PM

I voted no, that day at motherwell in the rain is one of my worst memories in my life! I like to view him as a different player now he's a hoop. Childish yes but it helps me! That said i think i have to agree with most posts on this thread, so far he's a pro and he's doing a great job for us! A hatrick against the huns (or just the winner on the 20th) and all is forgiven.

youngstar · 05-10-2007, 11:47 PM

i know ill sound like a weak m ind here but iv changed my mind, reading the posts iv realised that he was just doing his job and if he does the same for the bhoys for the rest of his career fair do's
i did still hate him 9slightly irrationally) but not as much as that fucker sproule in the hibs game before it

kevinMc · 05-10-2007, 11:54 PM

I hate blaming players or managers at the club for these things but surely Craig Bellamy could have played that day.. He was perfectly okay to play the Scottish cup final a week later.. And why the hell did O'Neil take of Hartson and put on Beattie.. Martin O'Neil already made this mistake in a Champions league match against Bayern Munich when he substituted Hartson for Liam Miller.. Hartson could always hold a ball up as well as anyone and that decision turned a likely 1-0 victory over Bayern into a 2-1 defeat that day.. I actually seen this whole scenario happening when we caved in against Hibs with a few games remianing and then they rubbed salt further into the wounds by playing out the last 20 minutes of their final game on the half way line with Rangers.. Can't fault Mcdonald really.

youngstar · 05-10-2007, 11:58 PM

correct me if im wrong but bellers played that day
i think i remember one of their players should have been sent off for a last man tackle on him but brother hugh decided it wasn't
and remember when sutto hit the bar and it was on the line? so close

**Paul67** · 06-10-2007, 12:00 AM

Aye, Bellamy played that day, he missed a great chance at 1-0.

kevinMc · 06-10-2007, 12:06 AM

sorry guys.. The memory goes.. Just shows how much I tried to erase it and believe it never really happened..

**Dempsey** · 06-10-2007, 05:22 AM

If McDonald wasnt good enough to score those goals he wouldnt be the player he is now either. Forgiven but not forgotten I think.

He can handle big SPL matches and now he's moved up a couple of levels to UCL.

That's bullshit we live in the real world this isn't fantasy land. For a start he was 'apparently' gutted and 'apparently' close to tears. Next if he was upset at not moving to a bigger club to further his career who begrudges him that? I dont buy into this whole i'm a Celtic fan i'd never play for the other side, especially for a guy from Australia where there isn't bitterness engrained in his pysche like it is here in the west of Scotland. Lastly his true Celtic bhoy show is pathetic? how so? he now has a connection with us the fans as he's 1 of us, should he lie and say he never liked us in the first place? Lennon McGeady McManus etc etc all got away with it why should it be different for him?

I didn't vote, cause to me, there's nothing to forgive him for
